Glendale, AZ → Bloomington, IN · Cross-country move
About 1,740 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $6,120–$9,100, delivery in 5–10 days, 1,051 carriers on the Glendale side and 56 in Bloomington.
Moving from Glendale to Bloomington is a cross-country move of roughly 1,740 road miles, heading northeast from Arizona to Indiana.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $6,120 to $9,100 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 30 hours (4 driving days).
On the Glendale side there are 1,051 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (452 of them authorized for interstate work), and 56 around Bloomington (32 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Bloomington.
Glendale has a population of about 260,572 and Bloomington about 80,000. The two cities have comparable density (4,031 and 3,405 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Labor and living costs run lower in Indiana than in Arizona, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 1,740 road miles (1,475 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 30 hours (4 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.
Yes. Crossing from Arizona into Indiana makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,390 to $3,370 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,570 to $3,780. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Glendale–Bloomington corridor.
